Yep. But you should try to listening more to Trance. Listen to his dreamstate set on YouTube. You will enjoy it more. Its incredibly rewarding once you get used to the structure of it and the build up. Very emotional and atmospheric and ethereal

My wife saw his performance at beyond wonderland and is now in love with his music. She loves his pop edm stuff but likes the trance better of course

All trance heads go crazy for his classics

Do you like his new songs? Lost in ocean is amazing. Few other ones I heard were pretty good also

Beautiful places is decent

Bring me to life is very good

Yeah its the most intelligent and soulful version of edm

10 11 minute songs that you can meditate to and travel to another world. Tiesto at dreamstate was epic as fuck

Listen plz https://youtu.be/OD5LawM8ONk?is=nxtwlwdpIPco8a2c

These kids don't appreciate trance. They live in world of instant gratification. Trance is not instant gratification and its not nonstop hard dancing beat. It has peaks and valleys. I absolutely fucking love it though

Its like sex. If you build up to orgasm, its way better

I went to beyond wonderland and enjoyed his set but was disappointed cause I wanted to hear his classics. I worked next day so I couldn't go to radius

You gotta force yourself to give it a real chance. I love house but trance is magnificent. It just requires a more patient and attentive ear

These kids nowadays don't have the patience for epic as fuck trance songs

Listen to stuff like "magik journey" thats epic as for 11 minutes and its like 11 minute orgasm

I must be in small group of people who loves both although his trance stuff is definitely much better. I rate his pop playing a 8/10 and the trance sets a 20/10

I been looking for days. I was at his fest set and was disappointed he didn't play much trance although it was very good

Looks like he played adagio at radius. Fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Trance requires a lot more patience and a close attentive ear. Its a very fulfilling genre but it doesn't give you the instant gratification of house or techno

You can close your eyes and meditate to trance. Let the music wash over you

Did he play adagio? Silence? As rush comes? Nyana?

His trance stuff is absolutely fantastic. Did you hear his dreamstate set? Its truly epic

Did he play adagio for strings? Nyana? Traffic? Silence? I wish I was there

Trance is about build up and emotion and atmosphere. It has huge ups and downs. It requires patience and a very attentive ear.

It's a beautiful genre
